We Now Offer an Alternative to the Costly Naturally Colored Diamond!

We pride ourselves in delivering the newest styles and designs that titanium has to offer. Extending the choices of modern styled titanium diamond rings, we now offer an alternative to costly naturally colored diamonds. These geniune diamonds posses true-looking hues that are treated by an electron beam in high temperature and pressure to color enhance the beauty of each colored diamond. This technology retains the transparency and the brilliance of the original diamond. The colors we commonly use are a lovely aqua blue and intense yellow. The colors produced are permanent, and the price point is extremely reasonable for genuine diamonds. In general, the colors of treated diamonds are far more saturated than those of natural-color diamonds, also making them highly desirable for contemporary fine jewelry. Cut and clarity are not compromised with our color-enhanced diamonds. Many jewelers, especially through online auctions, compromise the cut and clarity. When this happens the customer ends up with a heavily included diamond which does not sparkle. These genuine diamonds with beautiful color have exceptional clarity and are cut to exacting standards. With our fancy color enhanced diamonds the wearer will be overwhelmed with the brilliance and dazzle! These round diamonds are offered in sizes from .10 carat to over 1 carat. Now you can own a unique titanium rings with your choice of diamond at, an affordable price!

TIP # 4 HARMONIZING COLOR

Tip #4 - Harmonizing Color
Color will add sparkle to your bridal look. To harmonize, simply choose makeup and wardrobe attire with a single undertone. Either vibrantly cool or radiantly warm, natural or dramatic. Always go for look that enhances your own personal beauty. And ask yourself, if you were to look back on your portrait 10 years later, would you still think your makeup looks pretty? That's a good rule of thumb to follow to decide if the makeup and hair looks you're choosing will stand the test of time.

Bride who paid over $27,000 files law suit against florist

I heard on the news today about a bride who happened to be a lawyer, filed a law suit against her florist. The claim is that she paid over $27,ooo to a local florist for flowers that were to be shipped in and of the best quality. Having chosen the colors that would match her wedding, she and her mother proceeded to pay the $27,000+ Problem is, when the florist arrived, the bride allegedly claims the flowers were of the poorist quality, of market value and not the colors they had agreed upon. After the wedding, the bride and her mother contacted the florist to see if they could get a refund of only $4,000. To there surprise there was no answer to their email and therefore proceeded to file the lawsuit pending. What are your opinions about this? We know the votes on friveless lawsuits are coming up, do you think this applies? Do you think her actions were just? Let us know what you're reaction to this is.

How to Choose Your Wedding Photographer

You know that your wedding photos will portray one of the most significant days of your life but how do you go about choosing the right photographer for such a momentous occasion as your wedding day? Speaking volumes, these photographs will proclaim romance, love, tenderness, joy, togetherness, family and friendship during moments only realized once in a lifetime! Whew!

I talked with Brian Bell, the photographer of the wedding of which I was recently an attendant. I could not help but notice how attentive he was to the bride and groom and reciprocally, how comfortable we were with him. How does a photographer attempt to capture the personality of the couple as well as the fun and excitement of the day? As for Brian, he consults with the bride and groom prior to the wedding to get to know them and understand their expectations for their photographs.

Catering to the bride, groom and family is Brian's top priority at the wedding all the while discreetly capturing rare moments and documenting the magic and fun of the day!

Referrals are a great place to start as you quest for your wedding photographer~ not to mention all of your wedding vendors for that matter.

I wish you all the best in the pursuit of a photographer that is perfect for you! The following questions should help you to prepare for an interview:

1. Know your photography budget.
2. Bring your ideas and expectations to discuss.
3. Ask the photographer what he or she enjoys most about photographing weddings. Why?
4. Ask the photographer about their experience and what style photographs they take.
5. Look through their portfolio of real weddings. Do you like what you see?
6. Be familiar with the type of photography package you would like? What kind of photos, how many? Photos in a digital file or in prints?
7. How many consultations are recommended/needed?

After the interview, you should be able to decide:

1. Is the style of the photographer a good fit for you?
2. Can you see yourself in those shots?
3. Do the shots seem to capture what you would like captured if these were your photos?
4. Do you feel comfortable with this photographer?
5. Is this photographer passionate and excited about photographing weddings?

With perseverance, I know you will find the photographer that is just right for you.

Does Black Titanium Fade?

Black titanium is, simply put, revolutionizing the jewelry industry and has opened up a whole new world of unique and exciting new designs. The contrast between the jet black color of the black titanium and the diamonds is absolutely breathtaking. Many customers say the diamond in their new black titanium ring actually looks bigger and brighter compared to similar settings in gold, platinum and even grey titanium.

One question that many people ask is "will black titanium fade?" Well, black titanium is actually the result of pure titanium being sublimated and reacted with nitrogen in a high-energy vacuum environment. This process actually changes the molecular structure of the titanium, creating a new material known as "titanium carbon nitrate." So, since it is an actual material and not just an applied coating, black titanium will never fade.

Black titanium has an almost ceramic like surface, which resists scratches. It is not, however, scratch proof. With heavy wear and tear, the outer shell can still be nicked. Because of its increased hardness, and, to address the concern of cutting the ring off in case of an emergency, the blackened portion does not penetrate all the way through the ring.

You can check out some more of these cool and stylish rings following this link: www.titanium-jewelry.com/black-titanium-rings.html

Choosing the Right Wedding Band


The process of choosing the right wedding band can be a little daunting these days as the selection of materials and styles increase. If you are in search of a wedding band for yourself, or your fiance, then you have no doubt noticed there are many more varieties of rings available than there were a few short years ago. Since the ring you choose will ultimately be worn for many years to come, you will no doubt want to ensure that proper steps are taken to guarantee that the ring you choose is a reflection of the personality and lifestyle of its new owner. The following information will provide you with some very useful information that you can use in finding the right wedding band.

In recent years there has been an explosion of exciting new metals that jewelers around the world have started to use. These metals are: Platinum, Palladium, White Gold, Titanium, Black Titanium, and Tungsten Carbide. Let's discuss these materials in depth, including both their strong and weak points.

Platinum

Platinum is a rare, precious; naturally white metal. It lacks any alloys with yellowish hues that will turn it an off-white. Because of this, it will keep it's shiny white luster indefinitely, which makes it an excellent choice for anybody who wants a white wedding band. Because it is so rare, it is also very expensive. At the time this article was written (9-10-2007), platinum was selling for over $1280 per ounce. As a result, a plain wedding band made of this material can cost well over a thousand US dollars, and the price goes up as the design becomes more intricate.

Although this metal is very dense, and heavy, it is also very malleable. This makes it great for the intricacies that you will find in a woman's wedding band. However, this means that the ring will become easily scratched and dented in a very short period of time, which can be detrimental for a man's wedding band. Because of this, it will need to be removed at times of manual labor, or during such activities as working out with weights. Even though the material does scratch easily, it does not wear away or thin with age, making it an excellent choice to hold a diamond.

Platinum is also hypoallergenic, and, since most bands are around 90% to 95% pure, this makes it a very good alternative for those individuals whom are allergic to white gold. However, since it does not oxidize, it can leave dark smudges on your skin.

Palladium

Palladium shares many of the same characteristics as platinum. It is also a naturally white metal, however, it is much more bright than platinum. Although it is even more rare than gold, it is also less expensive. So, a palladium ring will usually cost a lot less than platinum or white gold. Also, like platinum, palladium will not oxidize and discolor into a yellowish tint with time.

At the same time as being much lighter than platinum, it is also much harder and will not scratch as easily as platinum. Palladium is also hypoallergenic.

White Gold

The natural color of gold is yellow. In order to make it white, yellow gold must be mixed with a naturally white metal, such as nickel. The resulting metal is a more of a whitish color than the brilliant bright white that you will see in platinum or palladium. So, manufacturers will plate the ring with rhodium to make it whiter. However, within a short period of time the rhodium coating will wear off, exposing the ring's true color. Some people are allergic to nickel, and therefore cannot wear white gold.

Gold is a precious material. At this time (9-10-2007) gold is selling for approximately $700 per ounce. Most rings are made of 14K (58% pure) or 18K (75% pure) gold. Gold is also very soft, meaning that it will scratch very easily, although not as easily as platinum. And, unlike platinum, it will wear away with time.

Titanium

Titanium is a light gray metal that can be polished to a very shiny and reflective appearance. When a textured finish is applied its color darkens. It can also be combined with yellow gold or platinum to create some very exciting and unique looks. It is also one of the more affordable materials. Basic bands sell for as low as $100.

Titanium is also very lightweight. In fact, while you are wearing a titanium band you will often forget that you even have it on your finger. It is also incredibly strong, which means that it can take a beating, literally speaking. Hit it with a hammer and it will not bend or break. If you were to give the same treatment to most other rings they'd either fold in half or shatter into pieces. Needless to say, you will never wear out a titanium ring. It will still scratch with normal wear, but these scratches can easily be taken out by a jeweler for a nominal fee.

The biggest downside to titanium is that, because of it's density, it cannot be sized. So, unless you purchase your ring from a store that has a lifetime resizing, don't plan on losing, or gaining any weight over your lifetime!

A very remarkable quality of titanium is that it is completely inert and does not react to body chemistry. So, even for those who are very allergic to metals, it is completely hypoallergenic. In fact, titanium is even used inside the body for hip and joint replacements.

Black Titanium

Although black is not the traditional color for a wedding band, many men will find that black titanium rings have a more "edgy" appeal. If you're looking for something that is unique and will really set you apart, this is the style for you. Black titanium bands come in a variety of styles. Many are decorated with white gold, platinum and yellow gold inlaid. If you really want to stand out with one of these rings, then you should check out black titanium wedding bands with tension set diamonds.

The only true black titanium rings are made by Edward Mirell, using Spectore brand Black-Ti (www.edwardmirell.com). During the manufacturing process, the rings are made using the Black-Ti patented alloy which turn black when subjected to extreme temperatures and atmospheric conditions in a controlled environment. The surface of the ring can be compared to a black ceramic, which is very hard and resistant to minor scratches. The black titanium does not fade or wear off. Although, it can be lightly scratched with heavy use.

Black titanium rings are very affordable. One of the most popular black titanium wedding bands sells for less than $200.

Tungsten Carbide

Tungsten carbide is perhaps the most masculine choice for a man's wedding band. They are very hard and incredibly scratch resistant. If you want to have a little fun with your buddies, (especially after a couple beers), take a metal file to your tungsten carbide wedding ring and file away on it. After a giving it a good effort simply wipe the ring and show your friends. To their amazement the ring will still be in perfect condition! You can wear your tungsten carbide ring during any activity and it will always look like it did the day you bought it.

At the same time as being very hard, tungsten is also very brittle. Just dropping the ring could crack it. This does, however, make it a very safe ring to wear. For instance, if you were to slam your hand in a car door the ring would simply fracture into pieces rather than pinching down on your finger, cutting off its circulation. Nevertheless, make sure that the jeweler that you choose to purchase your ring from has a lifetime warranty to cover such scenarios.

One thing to look out for when purchasing a tungsten carbide ring is that it is indeed a tungsten carbide ring. Some of the cheaper bands are actually made out of tungsten alone, which will scratch with normal wear. Some manufacturers will also use cobalt in their rings because it is cheaper. I advise you to stay clear of such rings, as cobalt will react to your body's chemistry and can cause a world of problems.

Tungsten carbide rings will fit into most budgets as it is also very affordable. Plan on spending around $200 to $350 or more if you want diamonds or a precious metal inlay to your ring.

Because tungsten is so hard, like titanium, it cannot be sized.

Why are Black Ti" Titanium Rings of Better Quality?

Black Ti" IS Black TitaniumBlack Ti" is a patented process for transforming titanium from its natural silvery color to black at a molecular level. It is not a coating. Black Ti" actually bonds with the metal throughout and produces an extremely durable metal. The benefits of Black Ti" is its distinctive appearance, highly durable, is hypoallergenic and will not wear off or chip. Thus offering titanium rings that are superior to imitations.

The Imitations are NOT Black Titanium since the unique process for creating Black Ti" titanium rings are patented, many competitors have tried to figure out different ways to create black titanium. Unfortunately, their methods are much less desirable. Basically, they apply a coating of black material to a normal titanium ring, known as "PVD". There are many disadvantages to this technique, including: low quality appearance, is not hypoallergenic, and can chip, scratch and wears off with wear.


With this information it would be a wise choice to choose the Black Ti" Titanim rings verses the competition's. Black Ti" titanium rings offers advantages of a high quality piece of jewelry that will last and look great for years to come. View our beautiufl collection of black Ti Titanium rings!

Tip #2 - Your Best Foundation Finish

Matte skin photographs better than a shiny face because of the camera's flash. To achieve a matte finish, use medium- or full-coverage foundation followed by a light dusting of loose powder or dual-coverage powder foundation. The powder not only creates the matte finish, but also sets your foundation to keep it firmly in place all day long.
